Hi all,

I just 'finished' LPE extrude. I'd like you to test it, see if it bugs for some paths. And, I'd like your input. What should be added and what should be improved?

I'm not sure if this sounds friendly enough :), but why did you not use existing 3D Box infrastructure?

Extrusion is supposed to create a solid body that changes according to perspective rules.

What the Extrude LPE does instead is simply create a copy of the original path at some distance from the original. The LPE also provides two knotholders that look different (circle and square), have an equal tooltip, and only the second (square) one works.
